The Best - Pekka Vasala and Kip Keino coming off the final turn of the 1972 Olympics 1500. They are absolute mirror images of each other every way - body, arms, legs, hands, feet - exact all the way down to the alignment of the stripes of their identical Adidas Tokyo spikes - Fantastic humanistic aspect of the photo is they have both arrived at "exactly the same moment in time" coming down the homestrech of the Olympic 1500M Finals from completely diffent cultures, backgrounds and upbringings some 4000 miles apart. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_b4EvVzAgAJU/R-o90wuqX-I/AAAAAAAAAGQ/JCJf_6r-vQ4/s400/Vasala_Keino_1500_Munich72.jpg |

Wish I could find a bigger version of this. This is Daley Thompson after the decathlon 1500 at the '82 European Championships (I think). http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51JRyuxZsQL._SL500_AA300_.jpg |

There's one I couldnt find, it was a shot of Frankie Fredericks and Ato Boldon in a middle of a race at full speed, both on adjacent lines lanes, with their heads turned, facing each other with an angry gaze... like face to face... pretty epic. http://www.steroids.info/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/ben-johnson.jpg http://www.innovative-results.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/sprinters.png http://www.oxford-royale.co.uk/images/michael-johnson-track-photo.jpg http://e.imguol.com/esporte/2011/09/21/grego-konstantinos-kenteris-e-cruza-a-linha-de-chegada-a-frente-nos-200-m-rasos-1316646824422_300x300.jpg |

There's a slight resemblance. But he looks a little more like that Futsum character... maybe you've heard of him? |
